SARAH CROFT • Memorial University • SEPTEMBER 18, 2018
Kimberly Orren is a co-founder of a social enterprise, Fishing for Success. Before starting her social enterprise career, Orren was a high school science teacher. She decided to leave her teaching career and go to graduate school in Florida to study fishery and aquatic sciences. During 2009, Orren visited environmental education programs from the West Coast to the East Coast of Newfoundland to see what people were doing, and in 2012 she decided to buy property in Petty Harbour where she then gathered board members and incorporated as a nonprofit in April 2014.
